FAQs
What types of heating systems can your technicians repair in Decherd?
Our certified HVAC technicians are trained to diagnose and repair all major residential and light-commercial heating systems found in the Decherd area. This includes gas, electric, and oil furnaces, high-efficiency heat pumps (both air-source and geothermal), dual-fuel systems, ductless mini-splits, packaged rooftop units, and hydronic/boiler setups. We stay current on manufacturer training for brands such as Trane, Carrier, Lennox, Rheem, Goodman, and more, so whether your equipment is ten months old or twenty years old, we have the expertise and parts access to get it running safely and efficiently.
How quickly can you respond to a no-heat emergency?
We offer true 24/7 emergency service to all homes and businesses within a 30-mile radius of downtown Decherd. Calls that come in before 8 p.m. are usually answered with a same-day visit, often within two hours. Overnight and holiday calls are dispatched to our on-call technician, who will arrive as soon as possible—typically no later than three hours after you call. Our service vans are fully stocked with the most common replacement parts so we can complete 90 % of repairs on the first trip and restore heat in one visit.
Do you offer preventative maintenance plans for heating systems?
Yes. Our Comfort Shield Maintenance Plan provides two seasonal tune-ups a year—one for heating in the fall and one for cooling in the spring. During your heating tune-up we clean burners, inspect heat exchangers for cracks, test safety controls, verify gas pressures, check refrigerant levels on heat pumps, tighten electrical connections, and replace standard air filters. Plan members receive priority scheduling, a 15 % discount on repair labor and parts, no overtime fees, and detailed system health reports that help you plan for future upgrades. Regular maintenance can reduce unexpected breakdowns by up to 70 % and keep your manufacturer warranty valid.
What are common signs my furnace or heat pump needs professional repair?
If you notice any of the following, schedule service as soon as possible: • Rooms that never reach the thermostat set-point or feel drafty. • Unusual sounds—grinding, banging, or squealing—during startup or operation. • Short cycling (the unit turns on and off every few minutes). • A sudden spike in utility bills without a change in usage. • A yellow or flickering pilot flame (gas furnaces) or persistent tripped breaker (electric units). • Persistent burning, musty, or electrical odors. • Water or refrigerant leaks around indoor or outdoor equipment. Addressing these symptoms early prevents larger component failures and helps ensure safe operation.
Are your heat repair services covered by any guarantees or warranties?
Absolutely. We back every repair with a 100 % Satisfaction Guarantee: if the same problem recurs within 30 days, we return at no charge. In addition, all replacement parts we install carry a minimum one-year manufacturer warranty, and we match that with a one-year labor warranty. For major components such as heat exchangers or compressor modules, longer manufacturer warranties (5–10 years) may apply; we will register those parts on your behalf. Our company is fully licensed, bonded, and insured, providing you extra peace of mind.
How much does a typical heat repair visit cost in Decherd and what factors affect the price?
A standard diagnostic visit starts at $89 during regular business hours and $129 for after-hours emergencies. Once we identify the issue, you receive a flat-rate quote before any work begins. Minor fixes—such as replacing an ignitor, flame sensor, or capacitor—usually total $150–$300. More involved repairs, like blower motor replacement or reversing-valve change-outs, can range from $400 to $900. Costs vary based on parts availability, equipment age, refrigerant type, and accessibility of the unit. We accept all major credit cards, offer low-interest financing for repairs over $500, and never surprise you with hidden fees.
